Richard Murray just finished 17th in Triathlon.

 

I just watched the triathlon. I have a question about the swim... Why were they all wearing the same colour lime green cap? I can understand them a in black wetsuits. The only way to differentiate them was when the cameraman zoomed in on the number on their swimming cap. Then a graphic with their details popped up on screen.

Tough game between two bottom placed teams.

Ja, pity they blew that lead but really looked like the second best team out there. Tough tournament for these guys.

Caster and Skizo in qualifying today, hope they clean up. Haven't seen Caster in action for a while now, hope she is strong.

That Caster, he is a strong woman...

 

But, I am afraid since the IAAF put her on "anti-testosterone" doping, she has not regained her formal glory.

 

I'll still be holding thumbs for her though!

Hey guys, please support Willem Coertzen, he participates in the Decathlon today and tommorow. I was with him at University.

 

They are starting with the 100m in about an hour, followed by Long Jump and shot put.

 

Later this evening they will do High Jump and 400m.
